Cobalt sponsors Swanage Seen

We are so thrilled to have this sponsorship from Cobalt Corporate Finance LLP, the specialist advisors in Technology, Media and Telecoms. You can read their statement below.

Cobalt is delighted to be the major sponsor of Swanage Seen Art Trail which is a great asset to Swanage. It illustrates the cultural richness of the Swanage area with work by internationally acclaimed artists; continues the educational legacy from Burt and the other Fathers of the town; and provides another strand for the evolving tourism strategy for Swanage and Purbeck – which can be activity based by following the Trail or passive by enjoying installations on an ad hoc basis. The Art Trail provides a sustainable historical context to the thriving contemporary arts scene.

Swanage Seen

Swanage has a rich cultural heritage: the beauty of the unique coastline and town have drawn artists of international stature to paint here, including Walter Field, Charles Conder, Paul Nash, Mark Gertler, Augustus John and Graham Sutherland.

Swanage Seen celebrates this with an Art Trail - a display panel, showing the painting, a portrait of the artist and a short biography, placed on or near the site from where the original picture was painted.

Comments & Quotes

“After my Swanage surgery I nipped over to the coffee shop to meet with Carlotta Barrow and the Strata group of local artists to find out about their ideas trail of sites where renowned artists have painted from. I was very pleased to give it my support and was pleased that the town council is doing the same.”by Jim Knight
